Oracle Application Software 10.1.3.4 User Manual

Configuring the Daemon for High Availability

Oracle Application Server Adapters for IMS/DB User's Guide

When using any of the server modes you can specify a pool of server processes. These 
server processes are started when the daemon starts and are maintained in a pool. The 
server processes are available for use by new client requests from the pool, saving 
initialization time. Instead of starting a new server process each time one is requested 
by a client, the client receives a process immediately from the pool of available 
processes. When the client finishes processing, this server process either dies, or if 
reusable servers have been specified, it is returned to the pool.

You set up a pool of server processes by specifying the following parameters in the 
Server Mode

 tab. 

■

: Select the range for specific firewall ports through which you access 

the workspace. Determines the range of ports available for this workspace when 
starting server processes. Use this option when you want to control the port 
number, so that Oracle Connect can be accessed through a firewall.

Enter the port range in the following fields:

■

: Enter the highest numbered port in the range

■

: Enter the lowest numbered port in the range

■

: Select this to use the port range that is defined in the 

daemon.

■

: Enter the maximum number of server 

processes that can run at the same time.

■

: Select this if you want to limit the number of servers that can 

be reused. If this is selected, the Reuse limit parameter is available.

If Limit server reuse is selected, in the field next to the check box, enter the 
maximum number of times a server can be reused. Select the maximum of clients 
accepted in a server process.
